Isolated double bond

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In chemistry, isolated double bonds are (mostly) C = C or C = O double bonds in dienes or unsaturated aldehydes , ketones or esters , which are separated from each other (= isolated) by at least two single bonds - mainly CC single bonds .

The isolated double bonds are an example of compounds with isolated multiple bonds . The latter also include alkynes, i.e. compounds with triple bonds between two carbon atoms.
